I’m a graduate student in the 2025 cohort. I’m interested in translation studies, second-wave feminism, and feminist sociolinguistics, especially second wave writers whose texts experiment with language and think about women’s space within the French language and their access to the literary sphere.
This PhD program is my (very happy) return to Cal after completing my undergraduate degree here in 2023. I studied Comparative Literature and French with a minor in Applied Language Studies and wrote an honors thesis under the direction of Professor Maya Sidhu on “Le Rire de la Méduse” by Hélène Cixous and “A Room of One’s Own” by Virginia Woolf.
In my spare time, I love doing many types of arts and crafts. I’m most passionate about woodcarving and model-making.
